Micromax has done it again. This time it has launched a new mid-budget smartphone that some people might find really attractive. Micromax Canvas Doodle 3 was launched today following a lot of anticipation and promos. Featuring a huge 6-inch screen, the Doodle 3 phablet runs on a 1.3GHz Dual Core processor. With the pre-loaded app called "M!Doodle" users can create & send Doodles to their friends, regardless of the phone they use. Another feature introduced to lure customers is a 6 months free movie subscription from BigFlix. Yep, you can watch movies for free on your Canvas Doodle 3 smartphone.

On the smartphone's rear end is a 5MP Auto-focus camera that can take bright and clear shots even in the dark with its LED flash. Users can click selfies with the phablet's 0.3MP front camera and video chat with friends and family. Folks over at Micromax want you to keep your Canvas safe with its magnetic flip-cover (similar to LG Flip covers) that have a window that lets you check the date and time without the need to open the cover. Running on a bit out-dated Android Jelly Bean 4.2 OS, the Micromax Canvas Doodle 3 smartphone offers 3G, Bluetooth 3.0, Wi-Fi and USB 2.0 among the connectivity options.

​

The Canvas Doodle 3 is available in 2 color options: Blazing Blue and Pristine White.

Packed inside the smartphone is a 2500mAh battery that offers a standby time of 260 Hours and talk time of 9 Hours. Other than the doodle app, the apps that come in-built with the smartphone out-of-the-box include - M! Live, BigFlix, Get It, Games (marbles, Rope Cut, Jelly jumper), Kingsoft office and Opera Mini browser.

If you do plan to buy the Micromax Canvas Doodle 3 smartphone at a price of Rs. 8,500 - inside the package you'll find the Handset, a USB Cable, Charger, Battery, Handsfree and Flip Cover.
